Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.78.6

RV 10.78.6

ग्रावाणो न सूरयः सिन्धुमातर आदर्दिरासो अद्रयो न विश्वहा । शिशूला न क्रीळयः सुमातरो महाग्रामो न यामन्न् उत त्विषा ॥

grāvāṇo na sūrayaḥ sindhumātara ādardirāso adrayo na viśvahā | śiśūlā na krīḷayaḥ sumātaro mahāgrāmo na yāmann uta tviṣā ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Born from the stream, like press-stones are the Princes, for ever like the stones that crush in pieces; Sons of a beauteous Dame, like playful children, like a great host upon the march with splendour.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
